In brief:
Late period

I agree with Dr. Engrav.

If you still haven't gotten your period - consider repeating a home pregnancy test at the two week point. Reasons for missed /late periods: low body weight, obesity, marked weight gain or loss, over-exercise such as in endurance athletes, breast-feeding, stress, illness, eating disorders (bulimia or anorexia), travel, hormone irregularities, drug use, medications

If you still don't have your period and it's negative again, then please see your gynecologist for a blood pregnancy test which is more accurate.
If you have pain, fever, vomiting, spotting, or light-headedness, then please be seen immediately in the er.
